THE NUMBER 1 REQUESTED EPISODE IS HERE!!!!

How do you make friends after college? *dun dun dunnnnnn*

Is it weird? Of course. Is it scary? A bit. Is it worth it? 3000000%.

But here's the comforting thing—we have all had a panic attack and quarter life crisis over how we're supposed to make friends and sustain friendships after you've graduated and you don't have an orientation leader shoving ice breakers down your throat and weekly sorority chapter meetings.

We get it—it's difficult, a little uncomfy, and a totally foreign experience.

Cue Alana and Lauren.

We're here to give you our honest opinions and stories on how to make friends after college, what has worked for us, and how we sustain real, adult friendships. From in-person activities like outdoor workouts to more COVID-safe activities like DMing a fun gal on IG, we've got you covered.

Trust us, we are all in this shit together.

-------------------

This week's episode is our SEASON FINALE!!!! So grab a glass of wine and chug with us for this Wine Wednesday, but fear not—we'll be back and better than ever soon!
